I’ve been looking for this type of twine, specifically made to tie poultry and meat, but I just haven’t been able to find it anywhere. And, when I ask the bubble-gum-chewing-and-otherwise-distracted teen sales clerks, none of them knows what I am talking about. I am probably being too cynical, but it’s true, more often than not. Since I was weary of using ordinary twine (and picking brown particles out of the chicken), and slipping around with dental floss, I was thrilled to find this on Amazon. It is absolutely perfect, and it easily ties together the legs of a chicken, allowing it to brown more evenly and it keeps the stuffing inside a turkey, without using various types of weird-looking and dangerous metal prongs and spears. Everyone who makes chicken, meat, turkey and so on, should have plenty of this on hand, as it will make the finished product evenly brown, and keep everything in place, for a beautiful presentation of the table.

This twine is very strong and did its job well. It looks very clear. We use this for cooking, for instance, to tie up a chicken, but we also use it for securing parcels and holding gift tags at the party. This is a very good deal for the price. I’m satisfied with the quality of this twine.

I use this in cooking to bind roasts, lace poultry, tie vegetables and other related foods. It is thick enough to easily handle with one hand yet cut into the food product (if used properly). I use then alone or with either steel or bamboo lacers, depending on the food being prepared. Imparts no flavor or color in the cooking process and because of the larger diameter are easy to remove after cooking. Only drawback is the way the twine is wound from the inside out - if not careful the ball will fall off the prep table when pulling string. Should have been wound from the outside in so that the twine is feed from the inside. The twine is, in my opinion, not a good substitute for string in non-food applications like package wrapping, etc. Overall, a good value.

I recently made a braciole dish. One part of the process is to make sure that the rolled up beef stays rolled up. The ideal way to handle this is with cooking twine.

I had none, so I had to use some wooden skewers. It worked okay, but was not ideal. So, I used Amazon to locate a product that would work. Voila! I received this a short while back and have already used it once to good effect.

I bought this for arts and craft purposes. It's a good amount of twine, far more than I will ever need. (Read: I'll lose the it before I use it all up). It's reasonably strong and I haven't found any flaws with it.
